NEW ORLEANS, May 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Siemens Healthcare
(http://www.siemens.com/healthcare) highlights new products and solutions (booth
#1023) for OB/GYN at the American College of Obstetricians and
Gynecologists Annual Meeting in New Orleans, May 3-7.

The latest member of the Siemens ultrasound product family, the ACUSON
S2000(TM) ultrasound system, provides excellent gynecologic and fetal
imaging for both 2D and 3D/4D acquisition, as well as 3D Dynamic TCE tissue
contrast enhancement technology -- an industry exclusive -- for enhanced
anatomic border and contrast resolution. In addition, the ACUSON S2000
features a comprehensive set of applications in the arena of volume
imaging:

In addition, the ACUSON S2000 features syngo Auto OB measurements that
use sophisticated pattern recognition technology in all automatic biometric
measurements. Especially developed to enhance the workflow in obstetrics,
the software delivers increased measurement accuracy and consistency.

Siemens will also showcase its smallest and the world's first pocket
ultrasound system: the ACUSON P10(TM). A 2008 recipient of Medical Design
Excellence Awards (MDEA), the ACUSON P10 weighs in at only 1.6 pounds and
is small enough to fit in a lab coat pocket. It is intended for use in
routine and urgent care settings, particularly in obstetrics, emergency
care and cardiology. In labor and delivery, the ACUSON P10 system gives
physicians and midwives a quick overview of fetal positioning, amniotic
fluid volume, placental location, abnormalities and miscarriage.

"The system is quickly becoming the assessment tool of choice for
clinicians around the world," said Klaus Hambuechen, chief executive
officer, Ultrasound, Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. "Instead of having
to get the patient to the technology, the ACUSON P10 system brings the
technology to the patient. This makes additional information available on a
patient's condition. In addition, it can save critical minutes, especially
when the patient is in distress."
